The paintings of the Ainu ACk of Hokkaidou kCΉand Sakhalin Tn, focusing on their everyday activities and yearly festivals. This was a popular subject in the latter half of the 19c, before photography was introduced to Japan. They were produced by *ukiyo-e ’G artists and other popular artists of the day, but the latter did not usually sign their names. Utagawa Kuniyoshi ΜμF (1797-1861) was among the earliest to include scenes of Ainu in the background of his beauty prints *bijinga όlζ. Most of the prints of Ainu produced around the mid 19c were from copies or based on oral stories, but later artists such as Yoshimune F@ (1817-80) actually went to Hokkaidou and observed their daily life. In 1871, Nidai Kuniteru ργP (1829-74), Sandai Hiroshige OγLd (1843-94) and Eitaku iσ (1843-90) together produced a set of eighteen prints which included several scenes of Ainu daily life entitled Gennyo Shounin Hokkaidou junkyou no zu »@γlkCΉ³V}. | ||||||
